Thanksgiving

Ok Ok. I wish I had the time to write this sooner... During the month of November they have this charity thing going to raise money for Prostate Cancer Research. The event: Movember. Most of the guys and regulars at my work signed up for this. You grow a moustache and get people to sponsor you in order to raise money. So, I figured it gave me a license to have fun with it. Throughout the month I grew the handlebar moe, then about half way I figured I'd grow the mutton chops as well. Some of the pics below show the process to trimming it down all the way to a really nasty moe. It was pretty terrible. I did all the trimming on Nov. 29, then we had a auction at my work where people would bid to shave off your Moe. I got 20 bucks, and all the money went to charity. At my pub alone, we raised over $2000. Not bad. I always wondered how i'd look with the moe, and it's a good thing I've always and will stay far from it.

Auckland was great for thanksgiving. We ate heaps, and got to visit the Northshore. The weather was beautiful! Now I have to cut this short b/c the stinkiest guy ever just sat next to me in this internet cafe. Terrible! Would it be bad to just tell this stranger that he stunk to high heaven, or is it just not my place? Geebus he's rough








Auckland


Auckland city
Layla got banned from shaking the madey standing up. Right before this pic was taken she dropped the madey. Luckily Pip was there to save the day, and the towels was wrapped up tight!










Sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, zuchinni, peas, bread, cranberry sauce, pecan pies. Lots to eat



I'm so happy (and pretty tipsy) that it's over and ready to eat!

I guess Pip really did like the Madey. Glad to see you're still alive over there. Although, the trucker-stache is questionable. What's the update on you staying?

I'm just happy there was a reason you grew that thing, and that it's not permanent!
